Halo Wars, posted about in the post just below this one, will be a game of epic proportions. There's even a trailer for it out already. The game takes place over a period spanning years before Master Chief's battle with the Covenant on the first Halo is revealed in Halo: Combat Evolved. It is an RTS by Ensemble Studios, and as such, there will be four ages: the Easy Age, Normal Age, Heroic Age, and Legendary Age. Not much is known yet, but we're suspecting the Legendary Age will bring us the Super Elites, Hunters, and Spartans we've been waiting to play with (a squad of Spartans is really what we've all wanted to use against a Zerg rush all this time, haven't we?). We already know the Covenant will need to have cloaking abilities (if you couldn't have Active Camo, it wouldn't be Halo), but it remains to be seen what will counter this. Perhaps the firepower will be on the side of Humanity, and the Covenant will need to rely on rushing with Grunts, or maybe even some Jackals. Personally, I really can't wait to see Mass Elites cloaked and swiping their swords at human villagers SCVs miners. It also remains to be proven that a decent RTS can be made for a console. Halo and Ensemble Studios, we believe in you. Labels: Gaming |
